So Krusty....
I would think the 2nd barrel would radiate more heat, yes, but more heat into the house would mean less heat up the flue, consequently more of a chance for creosote and a fire. Not so?
I am building a home on a lake in northern Minnesota. I am living in half of it while I finish the other half. i have been looking at wood stoves but holy Hannah they're spendy. I have decided to go with the barrel stove option. Just wanted to bounce these ideas off you garage geniuses.
